Trump Says He Is Canceling Strikes on Iran, Pending a Rapid Deal

President Trump said he has canceled a planned military strike on Iran. He said the cancellation depends on quickly reaching a deal, and that the 'perimeters of a deal' have been agreed upon. Some outlets reported that the U.S. and Israel were preparing a large attack on Iran's energy infrastructure before the announcement. Other outlets questioned whether there is real substance behind the claimed deal.
